What is form-validator-ts?

A tiny, type-safe TypeScript library for validating forms against schemas – gives typed errors without bloat. Install via npm, use in two lines.

How do I learn TypeScript by building a form validator?

Ditch tutorials. Clone this repo, implement one rule (say, required), fight TS errors till it compiles. Repeat for patterns, lengths. Two hours > two weeks.

Does form-validator-ts work for production apps?

For simple forms, yes – lean and typed. Complex nested/async
